Can someone explain to me the "Well intelligence also said there were WMDs so why trust them now?" claims? My gut tells me it's bullshit.

They didn't, the bush admin set up a new intelligence agency who's only purpose was to say there were WMDs and then dissolved it.

quote:

Just before he was elected in 2008, Obama said he wanted to �fundamentally change America.� Following are a few of those changes:
Obama promised the most transparent administration in history. Instead, his was the most opaque in history. A record amount of FOIA requests were filed. He aggressively prosecuted whistleblowers.
$10 trillion was added to the national debt under his charge. Maybe he�s not at fault there. For that, we should mostly blame the Federal Reserve and our completely immoral system of debt currency.
We also got more war. He dropped a record amount of bombs.
He helped create ISIS along with Hillary.
He was responsible for illegally taking out Gaddafi.
He spent a record $96 million on vacations for him and Michael, er, Michelle.
He said he would not rest until he built a sound economy for the American people, but instead he spent part of over 300 of his days on golf courses.
Remember how racism was supposed to be over when he was elected? The racial division was made much worse under his leadership.
But wait, there�s more! He signed an �anti�propaganda� bill that will affect our freedom of speech. Because the statist, corporate media is failing, he wants the government to decide what�s real news and �fake� news.
He began the giveaway of our Internet in order to bring about later censorship.
He pushed for a UN gun treaty ratification.
He brought in a record amount of Muslim �immigrants� and his open borders policy allowed in people from who�knows�where demanding free stuff. They also brought in more crime and drove down wages.
A record amount of Americans are now on food stamps.
He presided over several false flags designed to bring about gun confiscation. �Fast and Furious,� resulted in the death of an American border agent. Sandy Hook was very suspicious. Obama wants to take guns from what he called �bitter clingers.� He prohibited seniors on social security from buying guns.
Obamacare has been an expensive disaster. Young people are burdened with college debt and can�t find good jobs. Many are forced to move back in with their parents after graduation.
The dream of owning a home has become just that�a dream.
To be sure, the stock market reached new highs under his watch. It mostly benefited the one percent. The rich got richer under his presidency. The central bankers continued to clean up at the expense of the middle class.
Obama can�t leave office soon enough. Trump can begin his presidency by putting out the fires started by the Arsonist in Chief.
�Ben Garrison

We are lucky to have him. The Democrats were planning nuclear war with Russia, don't you know. All that stuff that looks like Trump licking Putin's boots is actually a clever strategy to maintain peace. It is foolish to provoke powerful countries against us. And did you see how Trump owned China over Taiwan? What a guy. We should never appease an evil, aggressive ex-communist country like China, despite what the lib-tards would tell you.

It can be (and frequently is) both. Homophobia and transphobia are misogyny's little brothers. Adam4D's garbage about raising boys to be boys and girls to be girls is about all three.

And both are born out of pure selfishness.

The reason why they think Obama is gay or Michelle is trans? They did things to improve the life of gays and trans. And little-minded tribalist people like Garrison cannot imagine anyone doing something disinterested: if Obama made things better for LGBT people, it's because he's one of them! Also it's a zero-sum game, if you make things better for group A, things will get worse for group B, C, D... That's why they end up voting for people who promise to make things worse for every minority out there.

I know far too many people in real life that think this way. Many times I've been "accused" of being gay because I've said gays should have the same marriage rights I have. When I follow up their accusation with a simple "Why do I have to be gay to want others to be happy?" they generally have no response. I truly believe they've never thought it through because they are trapped in some homophobic echo chamber.

It's good to be skeptical of official sources, but rejecting them without question is just as dumb as accepting them without question. Conspiracy theorists love to act like they're smarter than the mainstream sheeple, but all they do is substitute Alex Jones or Breitbart in the place of "people I always trust."
